WHEN THE WYZENBEEK METHOD IS USED TO MEASURE THE ABRASION RESISTANCE OF AN UPHOLSTERY FABRIC, A "CYCLE" IS CONSIDERED TO BE:
|
A DOUBLE RUB
|
|
|
MEASUREMENTS OF THE TEAR STRENGTH OF UPHOLSTERY FABRIC ARE MADE
|
TO PREDICT THE LIKELIHOOD THAT A SMALL TEAR OR PUNCTURE WOULD BECOME A LARGE TEAR
|
|
|
WITH PILE UPHOLSTERY FABRICS, MEMBERS OF THE UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE INDUSTRY RECOMMEND THAT PACKAGING, STORING, AND HANDLING BE CONTROLLED TO AVOID:
|
CHANGES IN APPARENT COLOR
|
|
|
UPHOLSTERY FABRICS EXHIBITING FASTNESS TO WATER OR SOLVENT
|
SHOULD NOT EXHIBIT UNACCEPTABLE LEVELS OF BLEEDING AND/OR MIGRATION
|
|
|
A COLOR-RELATED PROBLEM IN WHICH THE COLORANT MOVES THROUGH THE FABRIC, PRODUCING VARIED LEVELS OF COLOR SATURATION OR INTENSITY IS KNOWN AS
|
MIGRATION
|
|
|
THE LEVEL OF CROCKING IS EVALUATED USING
|
THE INTERNATIONAL GEOMETRIC GRAY SCALE FOR EVALUATING STAINING
